Large artery biomechanics and diastolic dysfunctionin patients with Type 2 diabetes

Abstract: Patients with Type 2 DM on standard medication showed preferential stiffening of the large central arteries. However, carotid augmentation index was not different between the two groups and is therefore not a reliable indicator of large artery stiffening in this patient group. Diastolic dysfunction, present in a significant proportion of this population with Type 2 DM, was closely associated with arterial stiffening, suggesting a common aetiology.

“…Also when assessed for co-relation between glycaemic control and diastolic dysfunction, the obtained value in the present study is 'P' < 0.002. This result is in concordance with study results of Soldatos et al, [3] who in their case control study of 55 individuals with type-2 DM concluded that diastolic dysfunction, present in a significant proportion of diabetic persons.…”

“…The classic echocardiographic and Doppler parameters have some limitations for the diagnosis of diastolic dysfunction because there is no clear and definitive diagnostic criterion [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]. Tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) is relatively a new technique and sensitive method that measures the velocity of the longitudinal motion (shortening and lengthening) of the mitral annulus and has an important role for early diagnosis of diastolic impairment in diabetic patients who may benefit from earlier treatment in order to prevent the progression to clinically overt heart failure [18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25].…”

“…Several trials have investigated treatment of hypertension as a way of reducing risk of ASCVD events (3,52,(54)(55)(56). The observed benefits of BP-lowering therapies have been inferred primarily from larger trials that included only subsets of older subjects with diabetes (12).…”
